JayWalking

When you cross the street through the middle and not at the intersections were you are supposed to. They call it Jay walking, because back in the 1900s in New York people new yorkers would call call tourist jays, and since jays were really impressed by all of the tall buildings they would walk up to the middle of the street to see how tall they were, therefore the word Jaywalking emerged

Joywalking

Joywalking: essentially the martial law equivalent to jaywalking where the prisoner takes more walks than is reasonably permitted

I was joywalking my dog until the national guard stopped me and asked why I wasn’t following the CDC’s guideline of washing my bum, spreading my legs 6 feet apart, and grabbing my ankles

jay~walking

(verb) When you decide to yourself "aw f**k the man, I'm going to smoke a joint and take a nice long stroll." If you go on such an outing, it is advised to go sometime during the odd hours of the night/early morning when no one is around. This of course insures the full enjoyment of set stroll without the needless worry of attracting any unwanted attention.

After a long day of classes, papers, and general BS, I decided that it was time to go jay~walking. At around 3 AM, I set out to find my campus had turned into a complete ghost town. As I strode along uninterrupted I was able to take in everything around me without the fear of being apprehended by any pestering bystanders or worse, the authorities.

jaywalker

An offensive term describing African-Americans, used by white people, when they do not want African-Americans to know they are talking about them. Term was formed in Northeast Atlanta. Probably because of African-Americans tendency to not use crosswalks when defiantly crossing busy roads.

Look at that "jaywalker" over there jaywalking. He's probably going to the welfare office.
